Advances in Project Scheduling

Abstract

Parts: I . Basic Deterministic Models. 1. An algorithm for a general class of precedence and resource constrained scheduling problems (J.H. Patterson et al.). 2. The order-theoretic approach to scheduling - the deterministic case (R.H. Mohring, F.J. Radermacher). 3. Evaluation of resource allocations in project scheduling (G. Harhalakis). 4. Resource allocation and multi-project scheduling (R.L. Daniels). 5. Heuristic algorithms for resource-constrained project scheduling: a review and an empirical analysis (R. Alvarez-Valdes Olaguibel, J.M. Tamarit Goerlich). 6. Constraint-satisfaction problems in project scheduling (G. Schmidt). 7. Multiobjective project scheduling under multiple-category resource constraints (R. Slowinski). II. Special Deterministic Models. 1. Graph-theoretical models for preemptive scheduling (D. de Werra). 2. Scheduling under financial constraints (J. Carlier). 3. Scheduling independent fixed-type tasks (J. Blazewic et al.). 4. An approach for real time scheduling of activities with time and resource constraints (J. Erschler, F. Roubellat). 5.
